Default Anyone ever seen E121 back like this?

If this card is legit, apologies for outing the auction, but I felt like I should post it in case it is not. The back just looks funky to me. Mainly the first two lines of text are more bold than seems normal.

Hilarious!!!

Pretty sure the scratched off area said “TCMA // Reprint // 1972” in 3 lines.

It is nice to know that it is an “exceptional” example of a reprint. Shockingly pathetic by the graders to miss this to this degree!

It's a "steal for the grade assigned."

Wow good to know. I saw that paper loss/eraser mark, but figured if there had been a "reprint" marking, it would've been down at the bottom.

Now after searching "TCMA reprint E121" I see it very clearly. Another one slipped by PSA.

Default 1922 E121 American Caramel Series of 120 1972 TCMA Reprints

You can clearly see where it said "TCMA REPRINT 1972".

It looks like there are also 2 variations of reprint backs.

... hey you beat me to it.

Listing is down, good to see. Now ideally that holder is destroyed and it doesn’t ever turn up for sale again.

I hope not; they should put that slab in the Hall of Fame.

Which is more surprising - that company A missed an obvious reprint and slabbed the card, or that company B listed the obvious reprint and slapped its top 15% exceptional eye appeal sticker on it?

Perhaps heard soon in a courtroom near you:

"Your Honor, In response to the defendants' contradictory insistence that on the one hand (1) they are hobby Experts that should not be questioned, and on the other hand, that (2) none of them are at fault for the hobby's problems because they're just relying on the "expertise" of the other guy, the FBI submits . . . Exhibit A . . ."

It is simply mind boggling!!

PSA, "never get cheated" grades it and PWCC, "Trading card marketplace experts. Our team of experts are the most experienced in the trading card marketplace"" gives it an exceptional eye appeal sticker!!

What a joke PSA and PWCC is.
